A Letter to All Forum Trolls Who Know Who They Are

[Kansene]

Tbh, just leave the forum at this point. I give it a brief look every week or so to see if it's changed, but those are getting rarer and rarer. The meaningless drivel and troll posts outnumber everything else to such a degree that FF discussion is better held elsewhere.

The fun problem is where, there is a lot of trolls here but discussion is actually rather balanced (if only because everyone is extremely polarised on both sides)

-mainsub- pro 14 echo chamber
-xivdisscussion- anti 14 echo chamber for raiders
-shitpostxiv- used to be okay till it went on an anti mod tirade that consumes everything
-Facebook groups- make YPYT and zero DPS healers look like rank 1 ultimate raiders
-X (formally known as twitter)- ERP

14 really has no good discussion spaces

Seriously, the forums software has a ignore list. Just use it and trolls will not bother you.

The forum is a community hub, it looks bad for users who are either new or unfamiliar with the forums when it's just ceaseless trolls.

Block sure, but mods should be doing their job instead.

Tbf the blocking system on this forum is atrocious, you can still see the person getting quoted by others which also means see their posts, it's pretty much useless

Unfortunately not much use when the threads they bump still appear on the top of the list.

It'd suck if you had to like, manually (analog?) ignore someone, without software assistance? Man that'd be like, the worst.

I could see how it'd work, you'd *look* at something, deem it distasteful, and then ... I guess just not respond or acknowledge it?

But without software to automate it for you, I guess it'd all fall apart.
